Synopsis

Almost everyone in Excelsior, Minnesota—craftsy and noncraftsy alike—has turned out for the art fair. So when an artisan is murdered there, the list of suspects is practically endless. Betsy Devonshire wants to help out in the police investigation. Her best friend, Officer Jill Cross, confides that they have a lead: a bloody footprint in the woodcarvers’ booth matches that of a local youth. But when Betsy can’t keep the news to herself, Jill gives Betsy the cold shoulder. Everyone’s on pins and needles—and when the family of the kid in question asks Betsy to prove his innocence, she must first regain Jill’s trust, then figure out who had designs on the dead designer.

Goodreads review by Wendy on July 10, 2018

SPOILERS! It was a struggle to read this book. In the past books, the main character Betsy did most of the sleuthing through talking to other characters. In this one, she didn't. About two thirds of the book was other characters talking about the person who died. I didn't feel the title had anything......more

Goodreads review by Kirsti on August 25, 2016

Another fantastic mystery with Betsy solving the crime! I didn't realize how much she would grow on me as a character from the first book. She's got a reputation to uphold now, and she needs to put all the puzzles together to save a not so innocent boy from a murder charge- or did he really do it? A......more
